Laguna Hotel

8/10 Good
"Hotel is located near to the town centre. The main thing is that the parking is free, unlike so many Bournemouth hotels. The rooms are not fancy, but they are clean, functional and have all the facilities you need."

The Bridge House, BW Signature Collection

8/10 Good
"We stayed for 1 night at the hotel, in a lovely room at the back, overlooking the river. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the hotel is well maintained. As an electric car driver, the ability to charge the car overnight was a huge plus. Breakfast was good, fried egg, sausage, bacon etc, plus pastries and cereal available. Just two minor quibbles with the room: the air conditioning unit showed the set temperature illuminated with a very bright white light, which stopped the room from being fully dark. Luckily I had brought an eye mask. Also, the temperature of the shower was very difficult to control, the switch from the bath taps was very stiff, then it was either scalding hot or completely cold with very little room to manoeuvre between them. We managed, but a warning sign next to the taps might have been a good precaution. A very comfortable stay overall, and a very convenient location for us, we’ll be back."

10/10 Excellent
"This cottage is clean, cosy and full of useful goodies. Thank you for the local bread, butter, milk, eggs and jam. Coming off an international flight to find we have breakfast in the morning was amazing. The cottage is set behind a secure gate on a country estate so is serene and beautiful. However in 5 mins you can walk to shops, cafes and pubs in the little market town of Wimborne. This is a perfect place to explore from. We absolutely loved it. "
